Feature Wall Painting Services
Chimney Breast Feature Walls
The chimney breast is the natural feature wall in Victorian and Edwardian rooms. We prepare it to a higher standard before applying a feature colour. We also offer dedicated bedroom painting services.
Alcove Feature Walls
Alcoves beside a chimney breast are sometimes painted in a contrasting tone. We advise on whether this adds or reduces the sense of space.
Specialist Feature Wall Finishes
Feature walls work well with limewash, colour wash, and other decorative finishes. We also advise on wallpapering for decorative patterned surfaces.
Feature Walls in New-Build Properties
Plasterboard is smooth but draws paint differently. We apply a sealing coat before deep colours. For full room repaints, see our interior painting page.
Here’s How It Works
1. Colour Consultation
We look at the wall, room dimensions, light direction, and your colour ideas.
2. Surface Preparation
The feature wall is filled, sanded, and sealed. Original plaster receives a sealing coat.
3. Priming
Appropriate primer based on surface type and colour. Saturated colours may need a tinted primer.
4. Feature Colour Application
Two finish coats minimum. We maintain a consistent wet edge and inspect in different light.
5. Edges and Adjoining Surfaces
The cutting-in line between the feature wall and adjacent walls is sharp and clean.

Prices below are estimates only. Call 023 8001 5722 for a precise quote.
Surface Condition
Original plaster requiring significant preparation or sealing adds time and cost.
Finish Type
Specialist finishes such as limewash involve more time and materials than standard emulsion.
Wall Area
A chimney breast in a small terrace covers less area than a full end wall in a large Edwardian room.
